For the past 2.5 years Ive been using paper diapers. I chose this route because I just dont have the patience for cloth diapering and honestly I dont want to be cleaning dirty diapers. I know lots of people that love it..Im just not a fluffy butt mom idk Id rather not carry around a dirty diaper with me for the remainder of the day since my children like to go as soon as we are out somewhere. Story of my life.
According to the LA Times, “Every child is slightly different, of course, but generally you change smaller children a bit more often than bigger kids. So, the differences in per-unit costs still tend to leave you with a relatively stable daily cost of about $2. (That's based on 10 daily changes per infant and six changes for toddlers.) The weekly cost amounts to $14, which comes to $728 annually.”
Only 3 main diaper brands and still you stand there troubled on what kind to pick! We've tried them all! Our favorite diaper is LUVS! People dont buy them because they think they are going to be cheap but honestly they arent! I can get 120 Luvs diapers for $20 or I can get 100 Pampers for $27.99. I will say that I do love pampers swaddlers. Thats all Achilles ever wore but two kids in diapers..well yeah that just wasnt going to cut it. We just recently bought the pampers cruisers because they were on sale for $22 and I do like them, but they do sag a bit fast. Im not the mom that changes the diaper after every pee. Diapers are made to hold more than one little tinkle lol Ive also found that poop doesnt stay in the pampers cruiser as well as our fav LUVS diaper. (I of course change poopy diapers right away) Maybe because the pampers diaper doesnt cover the whole booty like luvs does.
WIPES: When we were stateside we used Parents Choice..(walmart brand) It was like $11 for 700 wipes and they were pretty good wipes too. Very similar to Huggies brand. They came in smaller packs so it was easy to just grab a pack for on the go. They were our favorite! I like Huggies wipes and thats what we use now that we are in Korea. I personally HATE pampers wipes..honestly. They dont grip at all!
